It’s my theory that the car became emotionally distraught because the oil pan what’s not prepared and painted like the rest of the engine, on top of having feelings of sadness due to the similar neglect in regards to the fire wall, and in a extreme act of rebellion it purposely touched the suspension as a result. Because the car is a living breathing human being therefore it’s feelings must be considered at all times. (Go the distance) (whisper voice) and just know, before people get new teeth they always prepare the gums properly to receive them. Good work sir. 💯
Hey Richard, I always like using original parts whenever I can, nice that you have some subscribers that helped you out with some original hardware, car is coming along, great job man!
I bought my pan for 56 2 dr wagon on eBay , for std black 49 bucks free shipping , fancy chrome or aluminum 90.00 bucks free shipping . I got gold anodized for mine but I’m 3/4 in forward . Jus sayin
That's a good price. Speaking of being forward...I might want to double check that the rear mounts were all the way back making contact with the horns on the frame. That might be all I need. I appreciate you watching & commenting.
if it were me I'd take a ball peen hammer and smack that oil pan a few times right where it makes contact and never turn to the left to full lock. save you a hundred dollars as it's so close yet so far away. Get on with it, man.. let's go for a wee little rip, already.. is that a vortec 5.7L or just the cyl heads are.. I'm confused.. truck pan or car pan, it just needs a little clearance, Clarence.
Hi Richard, I just watched your labor of love video, moving right along. I'm sorry I didn't have any left over original Marden Nuts for your motor mount bolts, both of the same size used on the front motor mount studs and the rear bolt through frame bolts. I only sent 2 flat washers for the rear bolts through frame that are only used on the right rear mount that is slotted. Thanks for sharing and it's always a pleasure watching. Stay safe my friend... If I knew how to send you a photo of my 283 after I installed it in my '56, which I am so pride of.
Only the slotted holes...it makes sense now! I need to add an email address to the channels "about" page so people can send digital pictures etc. Thank you again for the support.
It seems you had more clearance turned one way then the other, perhaps adjusting the tie rod ends to "center" the center link would equalize the clearance?
Are you saying the valve covers might be on backwards? I actually haven't even paid any attention to that. They're just sitting on there. I need 4 more bolts.
Yes, I found a reproduction filler neck but it's on backorder. If it does not become available soon, I will have to get creative. I've got the new location under contract to buy, but the current location needs to sell! It's a waiting game.
A healthy shipment of parts & this '56 Chevy is going to roar to life! Here's more to watch ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-742TuYVh10Q.html
I will. I appreciate you watching the videos! Just posted a new video setting this engine in the car ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XJauc_Q3P9M.html

That’s Funny , it ok Buddy watchin Dan @DD Speed shop inspired me to take my retired Azz , after a stroke 13 yrs ago , an Dan , and Don, Over @BigDons Garage , inspired me to start on my dream car Took me 50 yrs to get it ( 1956 Chevrolet 2 Dr Handy man wagon ) and inspired me to dust my tool box off and dawn , my bib coveralls , and after a yr, and a half gathering parts I’m just now started on rockers and full floor pan , disc brake conversion already completed, then build motor and install with turbo 350 , and now Freeman’s Garage is nursing this old man along , Thanks to ALL 3 of you .
Thank you for the thoughtful comment. That's great to hear you got the car & are working on it. I need to catch up with you & start on the bodywork some day. I appreciate you hanging out at Freeman's Garage.
I was all ready to enjoy the car repair channel, your symbol (confederate flag)of division on the wall made me think again, subscribed and unsubscribed in 2minutes.
Good idea getting the repro fuel filler hose, it'll def be worth it, and my park lights on my 49 3100 work the same way! Headlights on, park lights off, go figure...wish I was closer to you, I'd definitely help you move, love your channel, keep it up friend! God bless!
Mike can you stop by a muffler shop and have him make a 6" sleeve that fits inside the tank opening and the rubber fuel hose held by a clamp? just for moving to new garage
That is a good idea. I've decided to wait for the reproduction part. I've already put too much time & money into trying to figure out an alternative. Let's just hope the reproduction part is available sooner than later.
